20의 마드리드가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Calderico Hill rises from the plains of La Mancha, visible for miles around and giving Consuegra (Toledo) its distinctive character. Its most notable heritage features are the castle and the windmills that line its summit, following its longitudinal profile. The views of the windmills and castle are truly worth seeing.

Before a nice climb and descent

A work of military architecture that the Knights of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem built after Alfonso VIII ceded the old fortifications and the district of Consuegra to the Order. The castle underwent transformations, renovations, and restorations, and its uses adapted to the needs and sociopolitical changes of the time. It enjoyed its splendor during the 13th and 15th centuries, and although it remained inhabited, it suffered a gradual but inexorable process of abandonment until its final decline with the confiscation of church property by Mendizábal in the 19th century. Finally, thanks to the will and perseverance of the inhabitants of Consuegra, the castle was gradually restored to return it to its former splendor. It can be visited Monday through Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

After riding through dry environments, a nice place to stop and watch the birds for a while.

The Laguna Grande de Villafranca de los Caballeros is one of the largest river lagoons in La Mancha and the only one in the region with recreational use. With its 2.5 km long beach, it is a popular tourist destination, especially in the summer months.

In 1925 this mill was still in operation. The neighbours could access it to grind wheat, either via the horse trail located on its eastern side, or via the road called La Nava for carts. This mill also had a nearby building, the miller's hut, and a dividing wall was also built to allow livestock to be kept.

We are facing the Laguna Grande in the city of Villafranca de los Caballeros, with a more than acceptable water level thanks to the recent rains. This area is very well suited for resting and relaxing as they have numerous roofs with tables and seats to eat and enjoy the surroundings.
